مصحف الثريا

بِسْمِ ٱللَّهِ ٱلرَّحْمَٰنِ ٱلرَّحِيمِ لَآ أُقْسِمُ بِيَوْمِ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۝١

No! I swear by the Day of Resurrection.

وَلَآ أُقْسِمُ بِٱلنَّفْسِ ٱللَّوَّامَةِ ۝٢

No! I swear by the reproachful soul.

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَلَّن نَّجْمَعَ عِظَامَهُۥ ۝۳

What, does man reckon We shall not gather his bones?

بَلَىٰ قَٰدِرِينَ عَلَىٰٓ أَن نُّسَوِّىَ بَنَانَهُۥ ۝٤

Yes indeed; We are able to shape again his fingers.

بَلْ يُرِيدُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ لِيَفْجُرَ أَمَامَهُۥ ۝٥

Nay, but man desires to continue on as a libertine,

يَسْـَٔلُ أَيَّانَ يَوْمُ ٱلْقِيَٰمَةِ ۝٦

asking, 'When shall be the Day of Resurrection?'

فَإِذَا بَرِقَ ٱلْبَصَرُ ۝۷

But when the sight is dazed

وَخَسَفَ ٱلْقَمَرُ ۝۸

and the moon is eclipsed,

وَجُمِعَ ٱلشَّمْسُ وَٱلْقَمَرُ ۝۹

and the sun and moon are brought together,

يَقُولُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍ أَيْنَ ٱلْمَفَرُّ ۝١۰

upon that day man shall say, 'Whither to flee?'

كَلَّا لَا وَزَرَ ۝١١

No indeed; not a refuge!

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمُسْتَقَرُّ ۝١٢

Upon that day the recourse shall be to thy Lord.

يُنَبَّؤُا۟ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بِمَا قَدَّمَ وَأَخَّرَ ۝١۳

Upon that day man shall be told his former deeds and his latter;

بَلِ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ عَلَىٰ نَفْسِهِۦ بَصِيرَةٌۭ ۝١٤

nay, man shall be a clear proof against himself,

وَلَوْ أَلْقَىٰ مَعَاذِيرَهُۥ ۝١٥

even though he offer his excuses.

لَا تُحَرِّكْ بِهِۦ لِسَانَكَ لِتَعْجَلَ بِهِۦٓ ۝١٦

Move not thy tongue with it to hasten it;

إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا جَمْعَهُۥ وَقُرْءَانَهُۥ ۝١۷

Ours it is to gather it, and to recite it.

فَإِذَا قَرَأْنَٰهُ فَٱتَّبِعْ قُرْءَانَهُۥ ۝١۸

So, when We recite it, follow thou its recitation.

ثُمَّ إِنَّ عَلَيْنَا بَيَانَهُۥ ۝١۹

Then Ours it is to explain it.

كَلَّا بَلْ تُحِبُّونَ ٱلْعَاجِلَةَ ۝٢۰

No indeed; but you love the hasty world,

وَتَذَرُونَ ٱلْءَاخِرَةَ ۝٢١

and leave be the Hereafter.

وُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۢ نَّاضِرَةٌ ۝٢٢

Upon that day faces shall be radiant,

إِلَىٰ رَبِّهَا نَاظِرَةٌۭ ۝٢۳

gazing upon their Lord;

وَوُجُوهٌۭ يَوْمَئِذٍۭ بَاسِرَةٌۭ ۝٢٤

and upon that day faces shall be scowling,

تَظُنُّ أَن يُفْعَلَ بِهَا فَاقِرَةٌۭ ۝٢٥

thou mightest think the Calamity has been wreaked on them.

كَلَّآ إِذَا بَلَغَتِ ٱلتَّرَاقِىَ ۝٢٦

No indeed; when it reaches the clavicles

وَقِيلَ مَنْ ۜ رَاقٍۢ ۝٢۷

and it is said, 'Who is an enchanter?'

وَظَنَّ أَنَّهُ ٱلْفِرَاقُ ۝٢۸

and he thinks that it is the parting

وَٱلْتَفَّتِ ٱلسَّاقُ بِٱلسَّاقِ ۝٢۹

and leg is intertwined with leg,

إِلَىٰ رَبِّكَ يَوْمَئِذٍ ٱلْمَسَاقُ ۝۳۰

upon that day unto thy Lord shall be the driving.

فَلَا صَدَّقَ وَلَا صَلَّىٰ ۝۳١

For he confirmed it not, and did not pray,

وَلَٰكِن كَذَّبَ وَتَوَلَّىٰ ۝۳٢

but he cried it lies, and he turned away,

ثُمَّ ذَهَبَ إِلَىٰٓ أَهْلِهِۦ يَتَمَطَّىٰٓ ۝۳۳

then he went to his household arrogantly.

أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰ ۝۳٤

Nearer to thee and nearer

ثُمَّ أَوْلَىٰ لَكَ فَأَوْلَىٰٓ ۝۳٥

then nearer to thee and nearer!

أَيَحْسَبُ ٱلْإِنسَٰنُ أَن يُتْرَكَ سُدًى ۝۳٦

What, does man reckon he shall be left to roam at will?

أَلَمْ يَكُ نُطْفَةًۭ مِّن مَّنِىٍّۢ يُمْنَىٰ ۝۳۷

Was he not a sperm-drop spilled?

ثُمَّ كَانَ عَلَقَةًۭ فَخَلَقَ فَسَوَّىٰ ۝۳۸

Then he was a blood-clot, and He created and formed,

فَجَعَلَ مِنْهُ ٱلزَّوْجَيْنِ ٱلذَّكَرَ وَٱلْأُنثَىٰٓ ۝۳۹

and He made of him two kinds, male and female.

أَلَيْسَ ذَٰلِكَ بِقَٰدِرٍ عَلَىٰٓ أَن يُحْۦِىَ ٱلْمَوْتَىٰ ۝٤۰

What, is He not able to quicken the dead?
